Advice on Selling 2014 Tuscany

Hi everyone, we've had our 2014 Thor Tuscany for 2 years and want to upgrade to something a bit bigger. Need advice on how to go about selling it. We are in Austin TX. Bought it from Crestview and have had it serviced at Camping World.

Anyone had any experience with this? Need advice and do's and don'ts.

Janis

I had good success selling our last RV using RV Trader.

Last year, when we upgraded to the Axis, we were offered $43k for our 2012 Itasca Reyo. A quick search on RV trader, it looked like the going rate for those was well over $60k. So, we decided to sell it ourselves on RV Trader and a few other sites.

We went through 4 months of dealing with silly offers, "can you drive it 3 states over for us?", and flakes in general.

Then we put it on consignment where we had bought it. It took them 5 months to sell it. And, it only sold after we dropped what we would take for it by $5k. We ended up getting $47k for it.

I think part of our problem what the RV itself. It only slept 2, so that limited the demographic that would be interested in it severely.

If, or when, we upgrade from the Axis, we will take the trade in.

Remember, if you do try to sell it yourself, you have to consider your carrying costs: insurance, tag, and storage.

Plus if trading you'll save some sales tax, you only pay the difference on the deal & not the total price of the new mh.
